Djblets (https://github.com/djblets/djblets/) is a series of reusable apps for Django that help make more involved web applications.

I've almost made another fabric patch #upcycled from jeans!
The lighter scrap jean material were from a pair donated to the thrift shop I work at: and were unsellable. The other was a pair of mine that had a pen leak. The white fabric is a from a jean pocket.
Made a bunch I plan to sew them on thrifted jeans and sell them... similar to my over-shirt like.
